Manukau Race 6

LAST ONE STANDING SPRINT PBD

Prize Money: $3,182

HANZO RIVER (4) boasts a strong record this journey here with five wins and two minors from 12 tries. Below best last time at this track (19.19) in a Class 5, finishing a 9 length fourth. Drops in class today so rates on top and should go close. BIG TIME TRACTOR (3) finds it hard to break through. Finished in the minors latest when second (21.64) at Cambridge Raceway and may be close to breaking through. Can definitely measure up. WIDE BOY (5) stalked the lead after a clean break from the tricky draw and went on to finish third (18.84) at this track in a Class 3/4 over 318m. Hard to beat again with luck from the squeeze box. RUNNING ON EMPTY (8) gets a chance to improve on an unplaced run at his latest outing at this circuit. Wide draw will suit racing style.

Disappointed last time but just missed the placings two back over 318m at this track. Others make more appeal.

Last start finished 2nd over 375m at Cambridge Raceway beaten 6 lengths (21.64) behind Chef's Mate in a Class 4 on November 20. Goes very well off the draw boasting three wins and one places from 16 tries.

Has shown little speed out of the boxes and drifts back in his races. The latest effort was a 11 length fifth over 318m at this track. Won a two dog trial (18.96) over 318m on this circuit. Will need some luck to feature.
